  Have been through a case of this $8 wine and the last few have fallen off from 88's to an 86 - the wine is now a little out of balance but the remnants of the tropical fruit I really enjoyed is still there just not as vibrant and the wine sort of is disjointed now-
  
  Just a great wine in its prime for the price but now it is heading home for retirement- Only hope to find another $8 white wine of this quality in its heyday

  Nice Chardonnay - citrus and pinnapple, mango. Nice summer wine - fine with chicken

  Enjoyed earlier this evening with Kim at a tapas and paired wines wine tasting dinner at Arpa restaurant in downtown Charlotte NC with the opening course of sashimi style tuna crudo, preserved lemon and bottarga. Very good, liked this wine a great deal and would definitely recommend it. Warm fruity nose of peach and ripe apples with good mouth feel, well balanced and a slightly oaky and buttery yet surprisingly tart flavor profile.
